Chapter 78 New Witness She is my boss’s girlfriend.
"The police came to our house?" The man said in a low voice, "What did he ask?"
Guan Lili leaned on the sofa, her slender white fingers curling her long hair, and said in a sweet voice: "They asked me if I knew about Song Yansheng's murder. I said I didn't know. Then they asked me how Song Yansheng and I met, how our relationship was, and about the child's date of birth. I told them everything according to what you told me before."
The other party heard this and slowed down his tone, then asked, "Do they have any doubts?"
Guan Lili thought for a moment and said, "I don't think so. I think their attitudes are pretty good."
The people on the other end breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that you don't suspect anything."
Guan Lili couldn't help asking, "Husband, what's going on? What did Song Yansheng do? Murder? How did he get caught by the police?"
She looked at her red nail polish and complained, "I was scared to death today."
The other side chuckled: "Don't worry, your husband has already arranged everything, nothing will happen. If anyone asks again, just pretend you know nothing."
Guan Lili snorted softly: "What do you mean by pretending to know nothing? I didn't know anything in the first place, and you didn't tell me anything..."
The other party smiled softly: "Isn't it because I'm afraid you'll worry? Just leave the work to me, and you can take good care of our son. When you have nothing to do, go shopping and spend some money. I earn so much money, isn't it all for you?"
Guan Lili rolled her eyes: "It sounds nice, but our son still can't even call you dad? Don't blame me when he grows up and doesn't recognize you!"
"Don't blame you, it's all my fault. I'm not good." The other party just laughed it off and coaxed: "Do you have any money left? I'll give you some more. Is there a new version of the bag you liked before?"
Guan Lili then smiled, but she said, "It's always about money, money, money, it's like I'm after your money..."
"How long has it been since my son and I last saw you? In a while, Haohao will forget about you!"
The other party coaxed: "Don't worry, wait until things here are settled, I will take you and your son out to play, ah."
"That's more like it." Guan Lili played with her long hair and couldn't help asking, "But is Song Yansheng really going to jail? His going to jail won't affect me, right? Our son is still registered under his household registration. If something happens to him, will it affect our son's future?"
The person on the other end of the phone said, "Don't worry, my husband will take care of these things."
"Haohao is not his son. When the time comes, just remove Haohao from his household registration. It will be fine. He is my biological son."
Guan Lili curled her lips, but said softly: "I know my husband is the best. These things will definitely not be difficult for you..."
"I saw a bag when I was shopping a while ago, but it was a little expensive..."
…
…
"In other words, Song Yuhao is very likely not Song Yansheng's son at all?"
In the Criminal Investigation Division office, everyone gathered together to discuss the progress of the case. Zhou Qiming knocked on the table, frowning: "Then, does Song Yansheng know about this?"
Shen Qingye said: "He should know about it."
Yue Lingchuan nodded and said, "Indeed. Let's not talk about anything else. Just the appearance of the child, as well as Guan Lili's daily consumption and attitude towards him, Song Yansheng couldn't have failed to notice."
Jiang Cheng also said: "And as Jiang Chengtao's secretary, Song Yansheng usually helps him deal with all kinds of things. From the company's affairs to his private life. If Guan Lili is really Jiang Chengtao's person, then he can't have never met her."
"That's weird." Wei Zhengyi hissed softly, unable to understand: "That means his wife is not his, his son is not his, and he has no other relatives - then why would he be threatened by Jiang Chengtao and take the blame for him?"
Everyone was silent for a moment and looked at each other. Wei Zhengyi looked around, bewildered. "Could it be that he is really loyal to Jiang Chengtao? So he is willing to do these things? Or is it that Jiang Chengtao has done him a favor, but we don't know about it, and he is doing this to repay the favor?"
Luo Kaiyang also murmured: "It really doesn't make sense..."
It seems unlikely that Song Yansheng didn't notice it. After all, with so many circumstances in front of him, he doesn't look like a fool; but it would be even more strange to say that he knew.
He has no father, no mother, no wife, and no children. Why should he be threatened by Jiang Chengtao?
Although he did carry out the process of hiring a killer, he was not the mastermind after all. If he had confessed honestly, actively cooperated with the police in the investigation, and took the initiative to expose Jiang Chengtao, he would have been given a lighter sentence in the end. It would not be like now, where he has to bear the crime alone and face spending most of the rest of his life in prison.
"There is another question." Shen Qingye said quietly, "Does Jiang Chengtao know that Song Yansheng knows that the child is not his?"
This is a bit confusing, but if you think about it carefully, you will understand it.
——Is this matter designed by Jiang Chengtao and Guan Lili to harm Song Yansheng, or was it planned by the three of them to give Guan Lili and her child a legitimate status?
Zhou Qiming murmured, "After all, judging from Jiang Chengtao's attitude, he doesn't seem to be worried at all that Song Yansheng would betray him."
What is the reason?
Jiang Cheng said: "Either Jiang Chengtao is simply confident that Song Yansheng is loyal to him, or he is confident that even if Song Yansheng betrays him, he will not have a good ending. Or..."
"He still has other evidence against Song Yansheng." Luo Kaiyang murmured.
There was silence in the office for a moment.
Wei Zhengyi scratched his head and couldn't help but wail: "Why do I feel that this case is getting more and more complicated?"
From Feng Yuxue to Su Jinfu, from Song Yansheng to Jiang Chengtao, and now there is Guan Lili, a mess of relationships mixed together. I thought I had a clue, but after I untangled the tangled balls of thread, there was a pile of new balls waiting for me.
Shen Qingye took a deep breath and said, "No matter what, this trip was not in vain. At least with Guan Lili as a clue, we will have a clue to investigate later."
Yue Lingchuan also said: "That's right, those were just our guesses. We have to investigate further to find out the truth."
He looked at Zhou Qiming and asked, "How is the investigation going over there?"
Zhou Qiming perked up and said, "We followed the clues Wu Chuanming gave us to check the projects Hengtai has carried out over the years and indeed found several missing workers. We are currently contacting the contractors responsible for those people and their workers of the same period for further investigation."
"As for Hengtai itself, we have also collected more in-depth information. Jiang Chengtao started from scratch and has absolute control over Hengtai. He has the final say within the company. Hengtai's business scope is quite broad, and Jiang Chengtao often travels on business. Song Yansheng and the CEO usually complete some less important tasks together."
Yue Lingchuan pondered for a moment and asked, "Does Jiang Chengtao have any other secretaries besides Song Yansheng?"
Zhou Qiming was stunned for a moment, then thought carefully and said, "In addition to Song Yansheng... he also has an assistant who is responsible for his daily life."
Yue Lingchuan asked: "When did the assistant start working?"
Zhou Qiming took the document beside him and took a look: "Seven years ago."
Shen Qingye suddenly had an idea and looked at Yue Lingchuan and said, "Do you want to... start with that assistant and investigate the matter between Jiang Chengtao and Guan Lili?"
Yue Lingchuan stood up and said, "If she knows about Jiang Chengtao and Guan Lili, that would be the best. If she doesn't know, you can also ask her about Song Yansheng."
Since they all work in the same company, the other party should be more clear about the relationship between Song Yansheng and Jiang Chengtao.

It was a little after one o'clock in the afternoon. Everyone else in the office had already returned from lunch. Pei Yanling had just finished today's work. She rubbed her sore neck and went downstairs with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
Ever since Secretary Song was taken away by the police last time, her workload has suddenly become a lot heavier. She used to go to get off work and come home normally every day, but now she can’t complete her tasks without working overtime.
The most important thing is that the boss has no intention of hiring new people yet.
Pei Yanling sighed and just hoped that Secretary Song would come back as soon as possible. He has strong working ability, and the two have been working together for so many years that they have developed some tacit understanding. If a new person comes in, they will need more time to get used to each other.
She has been so busy these days that she is really overwhelmed.
She was too hungry, and the weather had been getting warmer recently, so Pei Yanling had no appetite. Originally, I just wanted to eat a bowl of noodles casually, but not far from leaving the company, a high-ground clearance jeep stopped beside me.
Pei Yanling glanced at it casually and didn't care at first, but the moment the car door opened, the person inside suddenly called her name:
"Ms. Pei Yanling."
Pei Yanling was stunned and turned to look at the person who came. The other person was about twenty years old, wearing a casual denim jacket, tall and straight, with a handsome face.
She narrowed her eyes slowly, with a somewhat alert look: "You are..."
Wei Zhengyi took out his ID from his arms: "Ms. Pei, the police are investigating a case, please come with us." Pei Yanling looked at the small font of Pingjiang City Criminal Investigation Detachment on the ID, then stared at him in a daze, a little confused for a moment.
…
The car did not go to the police station. Unexpectedly, it stopped outside a fairly famous restaurant.
Pei Yanling looked at Wei Zhengyi and opened her mouth: "Comrade police, what is going on...can you tell me now?"
Wei Zhengyi took off his seat belt and pulled out the key, then smiled at her gently: "Don't worry, Ms. Pei, you will know what happened soon."
Pei Yanling was doubtful, but suddenly Song Yansheng, who was taken away some time ago, came to her mind.
Could it be that...
Wei Zhengyi led the way, and the two went straight up to the second floor and stopped outside a private room.
Wei Zhengyi pushed open the door, and Pei Yanling looked up, only to find that there were several policemen sitting inside.
Both men and women.
She pursed her lips, and after hearing Wei Zhengyi close the door behind her, her steps hesitated.
Shen Qingye stood up and said, "Ms. Pei, don't be nervous, please sit down."
Pei Yanling hesitated for a while, then walked up to the table and slowly sat down opposite the crowd.
"What on earth do you want to see me about?"
Shen Qingye smiled, without hiding anything, but pushed a photo over and spoke directly:
"Does Ms. Pei know this person?"
Pei Yanling glanced at the person in the photo and her eyes moved slightly.
“…I know him.”
Shen Qingye asked: "Who is she?"
Pei Yanling looked at everyone in front of her, pursed her lips, was silent for a moment, and said:
"She is Guan Lili,...my boss's girlfriend."
